  • "This wasn’t just a workshop. I honestly feel changed. Dr. Watson doesn’t just share information. She transforms people into better versions of themselves."

    —Carol O’Driscoll (Canada)

  • "I cannot thank Dr. Watson enough for creating the kind of environment in which I felt safe to admit mistakes and grow."

    —Daniel Martin (US Army)

  • "Kate makes these trainings engaging, informative and fun to attend. You'll learn a lot and leave the session with new and improved skills to utilize in your practice. I highly recommend attending a training."

    —Lindsay Moran

  • “Dr. Kate demonstrates a commendable openness to feedback, regularly soliciting input from participants on how to tailor the training to better meet their needs. This practice, which I have rarely encountered in the numerous trainings I have attended, underscores her remarkable competence as a trainer.”

    - Elias Soh (Singapore)

  • "Dr. Kate Watson is a talented trainer who deeply listens to the needs of her students/trainees. She carves out time during each training session to directly apply skills, helping to make them real and more tangible. Dr. Watson also balances providing her own expertise with the expertise of the class, further drawing students into the training space so they can take ownership over their own learning."

    — Mark Manasse (USA)
